How we helped
THE PROBLEM
The client wanted to improve the quality assurance activities around their products and team. They did not have a quality assurance team or defined quality assurance standards, which they viewed as barriers to growth.
THE SOLUTION
We created quality assurance (QA) teams, each headed by a QA Engineer. We also defined an Agile playbook for the development team and ensured the documentation of their key products.
THE OUTCOME
The creation of QA Engineer-led teams eased the onboarding of new resources and significantly minimise key man risk.
The Approach and conclusion
We expanded the team, integrated new team members into the organisation, and brought all stakeholders up to speed. We also created systems, processes, and transferable documentation (Agile playbook) to aid in onboarding new team members. These steps eliminated the risk of relying on a single person, also known as the "key man," for organisational success.
